Appliance manufacturers
use rapid prototyping to speed and improve their intense and short
design cycles, getting better products to market faster.
The design of household appliances requires not only accurate 3D models to communicate design concepts to internal and external customers, but a series of functional test parts to assess critical performance attributes early in the design cycle.
Rapid prototyping allows design teams to view the product early in the design process, enabling multiple renditions to be visualized and critiqued by a variety of functional teams within an organization.
Exact replicas of production models can be used to solicit focus group feedback on proposed new features. Half-scale models of products can be built and transported to customer sites for evaluation, frequently eliminating the need to ship actual production units.
